I can never get enough sushi so imagine my excitement when I found this little gem directly across the street from our hotel! We were seated immediately and received excellent service. The rolls were large, fresh and delicious and the presentation was enjoyable! I ordered a roll that wasn’t on the menu and they were more than willing to accommodate my request. We ate with real wooden chopsticks and drank out of wooden teacups which was a nice authentic touch. The place is packed which is always a good sign. It’s a tad bit on the pricey side but what sushi restaurant isn’t? I would highly recommend Taikichi to anyone who is visiting or living in Limerick and wants the best sushi in town.

Very good quality sushi place in Limerick. I was told by a bartender at a pub this is the best sushi place in Limerick, but I can’t independently confirm that as this is the only place I went. True to my usual deal at a sushi joint, I ordered the sashimi platter, miso soup and edamame. Presentation was excellent and the quality was as expected for a nice sushi restaurant. I also loved the more traditional wooden spoon that came with the soup. A word of note to American sushi lovers in Ireland: Miso soup portions tend to be smaller, and far less frequently do entrees include soup and salad like they do in America. That’s nothing specific to the restaurant, just a European vs American thing so be prepared. If you’re staying in Limerick and looking for sit-down sushi, this is the place to go!

The food is good and tasty in this restaurant, but it is too pricy looking at quantity.

My sister brought me here for my birthday dinner and we were only delighted with ourselves. She had a curry and I had sushi. The interior is lovely, and the staff are really efficient and friendly. Tis far from Japanese restuarants I was raised… in Limerick… so it’s great to see one doing well.

We went to Taikichi for a quick meal while exploring Limerick. We went thinking«Oh, a Japanese restaurant in Ireland. Let’s try it(not really!)» Much to our surprise, the restaurant was high quality with excellent food that was reasonably priced. We ordered the Agedashi Tofu, Gyoza, and Chicken Teriyaki which were stupendous. For dessert, we had a special Fried Ice Cream, which was perfect. The service was friendly, quick, and efficient. We would highly recommend this restaurant, even if you’re not looking for a change from fish and chips or corned beef and cabbage.

Small but efficient Japanese restaurant with authentic sushi and hot dishes. Ambiance and décor is nice. Great place for lunch or dinner for 1 – 4 guests. Don’t try to fit a larger crowd. Lunch specials from 12−3pm. Wine and beer menu, great loose leaf tea. Staff is pleasant. My only complaint is that the maki prices are way too high and the pieces are too small. € 8 for tiny avocado rolls is far too steep.

Fantastic! Best sushi you can get. Super tasty, fresh and lovely service from waitresses. Perfect way to spend a Sunday with family. We will definitely be back to try some different flavours. :)

Very cute restaurant! I like that they’re actually using a Japanese welcome and traditional style. The food was very good. We ordered two orders of the inari(tofu) sushi, the agedashi tofu as a starter, and the yasai yakisoba, which also came with miso soup. Love inari sushi because it’s so sweet! The agedashi was very good and had a good sauce to soak in. Loved the yakisoba as well, although I wish it had come with more noodles and less vegetables– or at least less onions since we were left with a pile of them no matter how many I tried to eat along the way. Good for vegetarians, so we were happy!
